The factory rear bumper on the Jeep Gladiator JT hangs low and sits far behind the rear axle, which limits departure angle and exposes the rear of the bed to trail damage. Once you start running ledges or steep obstacles, that extra length becomes a problem. The lower bed corners and bumper are often the first points of contact.

The Motobilt Tomahawk high clearance rear bumper is built to pull everything in tighter and higher. By tucking the bumper closer to the body and raising its position, it improves departure angle and reduces drag when coming off obstacles. This is critical for a Gladiator where the longer wheelbase already works against you in tight terrain.

Another area builders run into issues with is the section of the bed between the wheel opening and the rear bumper. This area takes hits easily. That is why this system includes modular rocker protection to reinforce that section. You can run it for added protection or remove it depending on your build direction. The bumper is constructed from heavy duty steel and uses recessed 3/4-inch-thick pass-through D-ring mounts that are tied directly into the structure. These recovery points are positioned to maintain clearance while still being functional. The bumper also includes integrated mounting locations for compact rear lighting. Baja Designs S2 Sport lights, part number 547806, fit cleanly into the design and provides useful rear visibility on the trail.

Like all Tomahawk series components, this bumper reflects real fabrication experience. It is designed around clearance, strength, and how the Gladiator actually gets used off-road.
